Question 1

after ovulation- is it normal to have tender/sore breasts every day for 10 days and not let up? also noticed purple tiny veins on one side yesturday.

Accepted Answer

Usual pattern: If this does not happen to you every month then we can not say it is normal. Your past history is the best indicator. If you are concerned then schedule a visit for an examination.

Question 2

i have very sore breasts as well as white dots on my nipples. my veins are very noticeable now, and the montgomery tubercles are bigger. what's wrong?

Accepted Answer

Are you pregnant?: If there is a possibility that you are pregnant, check a test. If you are not, or the test is negative. It is just some inflammation in the breasts. If you're drinking more caffeine than usual, you'll have more breast tenderness

Question 3

suddenly extremely sore breasts and purple/red spider veins?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: Breast pain can be due to a number of things:  cysts, associated with menstrual cycle, superficial thrombophlebitis of veins (mondor's dz).  If the pain is persisting, see a general surgeon, breast surgeon for evaluation.

Question 4

i stopped the 3 month injection 10 months ago. i have still not had a period, in last 4 days: sore breasts with blue veins and 2kg weight gain. help?

Accepted Answer

You need testing...: The Depo Provera (medroxyprogesterone) injection should not be stopping your periods after 10 months.  You may not be ovulating for some other reason.  There is a long list of causes for this such as PCOS, thyroid problems, stress, dieting, extreme exercise, etc.  Figuring it out may require blood tests etc.  You should see an Ob/Gyn for evaluation.  Best wishes.

Question 5

few months into using birth control for first time ( to regulate periods) and since using them have developed sore breasts and bulging veins on body. ?

Accepted Answer

See below: Birth control pills can cause breast soreness. This tends to decrease after being on the pill for a while. Birth control pills may also contribute the the formation of varicose veins and spider veins. It may be possible for your physician to switch you to a lower dose pill which may reduce side effects.

Question 6

it's the last day of my period and i have jelly like clear/pink discharge, sore breasts and a lot of blue veins on my breasts. what could be the cause?

Accepted Answer

Wait and see: At the end of the menstrual cycle the remaining blood and tissue pass although you are 28 so I am sure you know that. If you feel the discharge is abnormal schedule a visit for testing. If your breast tenderness and abnormal veins continue then schedule a visit for a breast examination.

Question 7

boyfriend never cam inside me had my period on time first month and late the second since but heavy. now have blue veins on nipples and sore breasts!

Accepted Answer

PG test first, then.: First, do a pregnancy test as "pre cum" can cause live sperm to impregnate you. If the test is negative, then the sore breasts may simply be a function of excess hormone (estrogen) stimulation. See a GYN MD or clinic if you still have any concerns.

Question 8

extreme thirst (even after drinking water all day), slight cramps, sore breasts, pale, fatigue, neg preg test, late  af, & blue veins through breasts.

Accepted Answer

See a doc: Your extreme thirst could be a warning sign of diabetes.  See a physician right away for evaluation.  If you have any trouble getting outpatient appointment go to ER today.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

No: Pregnancy symptoms vary from person to person.

Question 10

about a week ago i got off depoprovera i had unproteted sex sence then i have had sore breasts , getting sick on and off , lower belly is hard.pregna?

Accepted Answer

Maybe not yet, but..: It can be hard to tell if a woman is pregnant because some of the symptoms seen in early pregnancy can also happen in non-pregnant women. A urine pregnancy test gives a reliable result if done correctly. One can test about 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have occurred). An Ob-Gyn doctor can evaluate, if there are persistent or worrisome symptoms.
